Montigo Resorts Seminyak

There’s something about Bali, Indonesia that makes me wanna keep on coming back. I gotta admit though that I have only stayed around Seminyak area when I’m in the island. I will definitely explore more of the island next time and hopefully stay longer!On my recent trip, I was able to stay in one of the beautiful resorts in Seminyak –Montigo Resorts. The day before I checked in, I was traveling around Nusa Penida and the planning of the transfers were pretty stressful but thanks to Rika of Montigo Resorts, she was able to assist all throughout.

The resorts offers seamless transfers for your convenience!

As soon as I arrived at the resort, I was immediately blown away! Even though the location is close to the road, Montigo Resorts felt like a paradise! Bringing a new lifestyle resort concept in Bali that is specially designed for family, friends and that special someone – get ready to experience exquisite amenities and services here.The warm hospitality and personalized service they cater to every guest makes the experience in staying here worthwhile. The attention to detail of the staff is next level! They were super efficient and accommodating – a combination that is usually hard to find, if we are being honest. But thankfully, that is not the case here, you will truly get your money’s worth.Montigo Resorts Seminyak has its own restaurant not just for hotel guests but can also accommodate walk-ins. Priced reasonably with a good selection of dishes, you will find yourself wanting more from their kitchen. Oh, I almost forgot, please make sure to check out their drink menu because everything healthy that you can think of, they have it fresh! You can opt to sit indoors (aka with A/C) or outdoors (by the bar or by the pool area – the latter I prefer), the ambiance completes the whole dining experience.

The breakfast buffet at Tiigo Restaurant is available for walk-in diners from 7 am to 10:30 am. For only 100k IDR nett/person, that is pretty affordable considering the great service and wide buffet selection.

Tiigo Restaurant Outdoor Bar Area

I enjoyed dining at Tiigo Restaurant’s outdoor pool area. I mean who wouldn’t want to have this view every morning right? Coupled with amazing music, my morning was pretty much off to a good start!

As soon as I was done with breakfast, I quickly changed to my bikini and lounged by the pool. Before noon time, I was pretty buzzed because I started drinking from their alcoholic beverage menu. I mean it’s 5pm somewhere, right? Haha! Also, I’m on a holiday, so no judgments please. Lol. Tiigo Restaurant has a HAPPY HOUR DEAL that you can’t resist and you can stay by the pool while you have those well concocted drinks -which sounds like a pretty amazing deal for me. I love staying by this pool (they have multiple swimming pools around the resort) because it is close to the bar and the music here is so good! The fact that it isn’t too crowded and lets you actually have a chill out sesh makes me forget that I am staying in Seminyak. If you haven’t been around this area of Bali, it gets pretty packed and loud in other pool bars. Montigo Resorts is an oasis for me.

I wasn’t able to capture much videos of my overnight stay at Montigo Resorts in Seminyak but here’s a quick look.

Some of the clips are a bit shaky because I still don’t have a stabilizer yet. Hopefully soon!

I love watching this video because it makes me want to go back soon. And when I do, I’ll make sure I’ll get better photos and videos for you guys!

THE ROOM

The check-in process was seamless and fuss-free. I mean after a flight and van transfers, the least that you want is getting held up in the reception. You just wanna go to your room, put your bags down and relax. Here in Montigo Resorts Seminyak, they exactly know how to treat every guest and make the process easy.

Before going to the room, they gave me a tour of the resort and all the amenities. I swear this place is perfect for everyone and you won’t even hear the busy streets. Surrounded by trees and all the greenery, this is Bali at its finest. You will get your much needed R&R and that escape you’ve always wanted.

I stayed in one of their Garden Suites with Balcony (80 sq mt) – an exquisitely designed suite that has a private access via a walkway leading up to the patio. You can choose between one king bed or two single beds. I HAD ONE OF THE BEST SLEEPS EVER HERE. The bed and pillows were so comfortable I never wanted to leave. It also a couch or a sitting area inside and outside, a spacious 15 square meter terrace and an oversized patio.

Two sinks, a toilet, hot and cold shower and bathtub.

Aside from the closet, the room also has a safe for your valuables and hairdryer.

DINNER AT TIIGO RESTAURANT

I opted to stay in the resort for dinner as I couldn’t be bothered to be walking around and looking for a good restaurant to have dinner. I was already happy with the meals I’ve had in Tiigo Restaurant during the day so I was pretty sure that their dinner menu will be good. And I wasn’t wrong!

The whole ambiance of the resort and restaurant changes as the sun sets. Romantic and relaxing, the kind that you want to close your day. I had a mojito before dinner by the pool while looking through the menu as I’d like to take my time before I order. HAVE I MENTIONED THAT THEIR DRINKS HERE ARE SO GOOD? You can even ask the bar staff what they can recommend based on what kind of cocktail you like.

I was feeling a bit under the weather so I was kinda craving for soup. I ordered the Lobster Cappuccino (lobster bisque with seafood wonton and
coriander foam) 80IDR as it got me curious. The taste was really unique yet delicious.

I love Calamari but I always seem to struggle in finding fresh ones. Sometimes I get those chewy annoying pieces. So when I saw that they have Crispy Calamari (with tartar dressing) 90IDR, I knew I had to try it.

And wow, true to its name, it was crispy and it was fresh – just like how I want it!

For the main, I ordered Grilled Seafood Platter 445IDR because I have a habit of having more seafood when I’m by the beach. So the way you order this, you get to choose from their seafood menu which ones you would like in your dish. I chose Jimbaran Calamari, Slipper Lobster and Jumbo Prawn.

I love how they actually grill it right there and then so you know that you are really getting your seafood fresh.

Look at that beauty! This was definitely good for max 4 pax. They grilled the seafood with herbs and spices so it was very flavorful.

And of course for the dessert, I had the Bittersweet Chocolate (flourless dark chocolate cake, chocolate soil, pressed strawberries, chocolate chantilly, candied lemonpeel and chocolate tuile) 40IDR. This was so good that I wished I could have it every single day!

I had such an amazing stay here at Montigo Resorts Seminyak and I cannot wait to be back! This place is perfect for everyone and so close to everything you need (including the airport).
